Lyttle Peak

(1 route)

There's a route up Architect Creek from just above the swing bridge which goes high through the bush on the true right. It's blazed with pink and orange ribbon and emerges onto the river flats just past the gorge.
Descent from the summit to Architect Creek is via the Northern slopes, staying close to the North Ridge. At 1900m, descend the easy snow gully down to the base of the West Face.

3 pitches of variable quality rock lead into moderate scrambling through the
middle section of the west face. As the face steepens again, trend
rightwards aiming for the large ledge overhanging the central gully. An
exposed but short step leads back onto the slabs, which are traversed to the
final pitch on the NE aspect. Good quality rock on upper sections, crux
grade 16.
